The Modern Zen House Design.

I chose this house because, it is more natural and earthy. In the two stories, "There Will Come Soft Rains," and "The Veldt," deal with nature and the destruction of it. I think this house describes the beauty of nature and how we should keep it out of harms way.

"The Dog," from There Will Come Soft Rains.

"The front door recognized the dog voice and opened. The dog, once huge and fleshy, but now gone to bone and covered with sores, moved in and through the house, tracking mud." The dog foreshadows death and that it can happen to anything or anyone. It is also symbolic for the end of the world and death that you can never escape from.

"The Nursery Room," from The Veldt.

"The hot straw smell of lion grass, the cool green water hole, the green rusty smell of animals, the smell of dust like a red paprika in the hot air." In this story it describes what the children are thinking of in great detail. The mood of this story is death, because the children cannot stop thinking about these animals killing and dying.

"August 4th, 2026," from There Will Come Soft Rains.

This date is repeated throughout the story. It creates conflict between nature v. nature, because the date represents the day when this world ended. In the story they say, "it repeated the date three times for memory's sake." It's a memory of when this world was destroyed. The irony in this story is about how man made machines has destroyed the world and the date remains you of this horrible day.
